Well in a perfect, "not crazy" week I would make and send to each of you this Valentine. But that is not possible. So I will share this Valentine tutorial and you can make one. I plan (when life is not so crazy) to make and frame one for me. I wish each of you dear readers a day full of love. Your love and support of my blog, fills me. Thank you !!!!

Both images are from Little Acorn, thank you for the tutorial, I love it.

Akkk, my in-laws just called and are coming to visit this week. So I am going to have to extend my blog break another week. But soon I will have some fun things to share. I have been busy crafting and cooking. But for now I am off to try to get my house clean before my in-laws (who are sweet as can be) show up. You all know how much I hate to clean, pray for my {;- P

Sweet and Happy Valentine's Day to you, Clarice. Thank you for the message you sent to my email, it was a nice surprise. I do enjoy your blog and reading about all the fun and inspiring things you and your family do.

I think the blogging world is so wonderful for encouraging each one of us to create, to share and to be inspired.

And I am giggling about the cleaning and the company. I'm sure it's must worse in your mind than it ever will be in theirs! They love you and will enjoy not only your company, but the dust bunnies as well! I'll be thinking of you today as you scrub and dust! It's nice you have two girls to help you out (just like my mom did; we'd have quite the cleaning parties --- put on the music, really loud! And work away. . .).
